Beach Photos:
Romeo & Juliet Portrait
The beach photo of a girl
and boy portrays an image that we call
Romeo & Juliet because of the innocent beauty
captured in a special moment. Her arms are draped around
his shoulders as they embrace in the darkness of the
setting sun.
While the beach is filled
with all kinds of activities, the timeless moments can
be seen and captured in interactions between people such
as innocent embraces, hugs and kisses, smiles and
laughter and the warm caring of a
father watching over his child.
Beach photos are
traditionally perceived to be
bikini-clad beautiful ladies and
beach buffed men. How boring life would be if that
was all there was to the beach! People of all
sorts go to the beach and share in a love of nature. It
is that perfect setting that cannot be re-created in
your office on a computer, that makes this an experience
worth pursuing as you follow your passion to be by the
ocean.
Beaches are actually
one of the favorite places for portraits of kids,
adults, families and groups getting together. A trend in
photography is to capture reality in a journalistic
style such as the portrait above. People want something
natural and memorable, and it need not include perfect
studio lighting or tons of fill light.
Sometimes the best
gift to give a loved one is just such an image you've
taken. As for romance at the beach (a subject we've
failed to discuss), at most beaches in California you
must hold back on your unrequited love and passion. But
with many camping opportunities at beaches ranging from
San Elijo State Beach in Carlsbad to Limekiln State
Beach on the Big Sur Coast, the call of the wild is ever
present.
